Not injured according to the commentators. Simply managed time - for whatever reason.

Ok that’s good. He is probably the emergency tonight. Hopefully doesn’t mean we have another defender under an injury cloud.

Is dissent not paid in the VFL?

That's what I've noticed, and isn't the game better for it.

van Roo has some wheels

Obviously no comparison on ability ( yet ) but he bears a very strong resemblance to a young David Schwartz

Rosman can be anything

Clearly showing this year that he’s a cut above. Just needs to back his size….more physicality at/in the contest. Otherwise got it all. Exciting. Taj and the Dutch also showing everything they should.

Is Rosman the longest kick at the club? If not, who’s longer?

On Gus &Gawny podcast they named him as one of the longest kicks. Convo about who did the best torps, and Rosman called out for being able to drop punt torp distance.

Laurie with the obligatory awful haircut that seems to be a necessary but not sufficient condition for senior selection 

 

...And a great goal to back it up 😀

I don't mind the intent of the rule at all.

It's the application that concerns/irritates/confuses me!

Speaking of intent Uncle It is my intention to pour myself my first Glug Glug of the afternoon and apply the said lubricant down my screetch expeditiously

Looking at the crowd postioning they seem to have closed off a lot of the ground. No one in the Grandstand ?

Before the game they did gather around it nervously and poked it with crowbars & tyre jacks. Someone threw a ciggie lighter at it and they all took fright and retreated to the more open spaces.

Fantastic play by tmac breaking the contest and kicking to space in front of JVR who converts very nicely. Casey up 88 to 57.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
